How John Smiths Demise Was Recorded
 in the Papers of His Native Town.
 4 PtGi1l, UnUarniShed TaLe. John Smith fell down last night and broke his neck.
 Ibe Florid StvIe. Our esteemed townsman, Mir. John Smith, who has gone in and out among us for many years, and whose form and features were as well known in our streets as the familiar horse-c cars which wind their slow and melancholy way through the city, has finally suc- cumbed to the inevitable fate which hangs over us all; the grim monster in Mir Smiths case coming in the form of a sudden precipitation to the sidewalk. The fall resulted in the sev- erance of his trachelian vertebre, and death instantly intervening, the spirit of our esteemed fellow citizen scared toward that realm where sidewalks present none of those pitfalls and in- equalties which beset the unwary upon this mundane sphere.
 The EnterpriSi11g Form. At twenty three minutes past nine o'clock last night sad and distressing casualty oc- cured at the corner of Dock square and Canton street. by which the city loses an estimable citizen, a wife a fond and affectionate husband, and large and interesting family a kind and in- dulgent father. Mr. John Smith, the celebrated cobbler of No. 7S45 Short street, while walking along Canton street. met with an inequality of the sidewalk, just as he reached the corner of Dock square, and striking thereon the big toe of his left foot, he fell a stark and senseless corpse, his body when discovered by BtOo0er represen- tative lying at an angle of thirty-fve de- grees with the line of the curb. The following diagram will help the read CT to understand the conditions of the &C.,

The Effects of Smoking.

Dr. A. L. Gilson of the United States Navy gives the following testimony as 10 the effects of smoking upon the stu- dents.
 l. It leads to impaired nutrition of the nerve centers.
 2. It is fertile cause of neuralgia, vertigo and indigestion.
 3. It irritates the mouth and throat and thus destroys the purity of the voice.
 4 By excitation of the optic nerve, it provokes amanrosis and other defects of vision.
 5. It causes a tremulous hand and an intermittent pulse.
 6. One of its conspicuous effects is to develop irritability of the heart.
 2. It retards the cell change on which the development of the adoescent de- pends.-Des MoincS Register

Temperature of the Skin.

Though the interior of the body re- tains quite constant heat of 9S to 100 degrees, the temperature of the skin varies considerably in different parts. Prof. Kunkel, at Wurzburg, has just found that in the face in adult men it ranges from S5 to 89 degrees. The skin of the more exposed parts of the body, the nose and the ears, shows a lower temperature, seldom exceeding 75 degrees, and even descending to 7L5. The highest surface temper ature appears in men in the full vi.or of life, and the remarkable fact is ob- served that the skin of children is cool CT than-thatsqf adults-being from v to S4 degrees. .-Ar5ansam IrGUelen

A, the body; B, Mrs. Smith; c, Patrolman McClubbem; D, Dr. Sawemoff; E. the BlO1CeT reporter; F, Mollie Smith, cd nine; G, Katie Smith, aged six; H, Tommy Smith, aged three and half.
 When the reporter left the premises Undertaken Diggory Down had ar rived and was preparing the body for its last resting place. The interment will take place at Golgotha Cemetry, Clavicle path, third grave from Scapula avenue, on Monday next at two p. m. Rev. Mir. Abraham Glummerton, of the Sev- enth Methodist Episcopal Church, on Zion avenue, will oficiate at the flu neral, assisted by a double quartet connected with the same parish. A large number of floral decorations are expected. and the BloaOer readers will promptly be informed as to their character, together with the names of the donors. Mir Smith was forty-six years of age, and his widow, nee Proggins, is two years his junior. The ages of the several children have already been given. It is worthy of remark that had the &C., cident occurred three or four feet nearer Dock square, Mir. Smith must inevitably have fallen upon little boy and dog who were playing together in the gutter, and no doubt have launched them both into eternity.
 The Didactic Form. Last night, shortly after the clocks of the city had struck nine, John Smith was summoned to his Maker through the instrumental ity of an imperfect sidewalk This sad event should teach our municipal fathers to mend the ways of the city ere others meet the fate of our depart ed fellow-townsman, and each and all of us to mend our individual ways ere we fall to rise no more in the flesh.
 I'he Learned Writer. An honest wight John Smith by name, while threading his way in the vicinage of Dock square last night, suddenly col lided against a protuberance in the tesselated walk, and was instantly propelled prone upon the pavement with a mortal hurt Death came sud denly, like Bozarris the brave upon the unsuspecting Moslems, or rather like the swift vengeance which followed the presumption of the Aba horbegars at the siege of Blimbornjekow, and John Smith lay as did the slain that sprinkled the field of Waterloo. where the proud Cambronne deied death. The protuberance which laid John Smith low was irregular in appear ance, resembling somewhat the par ticles which strewed the plains around Troy after the fall of that famed stronghold. MT. Smith was but sim pie cordwainer, but he was as greatly beloved in his narrow sphere as was the knightly Arthur by the dashing cavaliers and ladies fair who followed the fortunes of the wielder of Excali- bur and the seeker of the Holy Grail Boston IrGnScript.

Our Mexican neighbors recp.

Our Mexican neighbors recently played neat little game in evading the payment of duty on wool, which at the same time was perfectly legal A flock of sheep was driven across the border, and duty was assessed upon them as livestock. They were then sheared and the wool placed upon the market without having been subjected to duty. By this means the thrifty wool-growers effected a saving of about fifty per cent. in the duty.

 The BloaQer representative placed a brick, which he was so fortunate as to find near by, under the head of the de ceased, and then departed in search of the police and for medical attendance. When he returned he found the body guarded by Patrolman Michael Me Clubbem, the efficient officer of Station No. 36, who, it will be remembered, oc- cupied so enviable part in the ap- prehension of the Kantankereus Kids, an organization of youthful marau- ders whose depredations had creat- ed terrible panic among the candy and toy shops of the Forty eighth Ward. Dr. Sawemoff arrived soon after, and upon examining the body, pronounced that the neck was broken. MT. Smith was conveyed to his once happy home, but now the abode ot despair. The lamentations of Mrs. Smith and the group of orphaned chil- dren were heartrending, and the BlOaOe1 reporter. accustomed as he is to scenes of woe, was forced to retire behind the shelter of friendly rain-water hogs. head, and relieve his overcharged feel. ings in sympathetic tears. When he had recovered himself the BloOer re- porter emerged from his retirement, te find that all that was mortal of MT.

What Misn. Have Been ErDsoted.

A lady in Barringer township, says the Statesville (N. C.) Landmark, had heard that sprlnkling a little gunpowder on the fire would prevent hawks from molest- ing chickens. Hawks were very trouble some among her chickens and she got the powder-horn and proceeded to pour little stream of powder on the fire What might naturally have been expected to follow did follow-the fire ran up into the horn, the powder exploded and her hand was torn to pieces.

Dillon to Get u Delicate Railroad Deal

Dillon has not received a just consider
alton from the railroad company in the
past. 1t is the best town on the line from
Ogden to Butte. The railroad company's
receipts at Dillon are now averaging, from
passengers and freights shipped and receiv-
ed, $4,000 per month or $;oo,ooo year.
No other town on the line, except those
mentioned, affords the company like
amount Of business, and when the impor.
tance of Dillon is properly weighed It
would scern that the railroad company
should favor this point in preference to
other places. Dillon is to receive deli
cate railroad deal on or about the 18th inst.
when change Of time Of tie up-bound
passenger train will take place. After the
18th the passenger train for Butte will ar.
rive daily at Dillon at s.45 p. m., and stop
long enough for the passengers to get sup

OF the arrival of the passenger train going
